Orioninverness (2/1), Frankie Ballou (9/4), Mcginty's Dream (3/1), Sharney Sike (7/2), Bingo D'Olivate (6/1), What A Dream (8/1), Scorpo (14/1), Notonebuttwo (16/1)

There are question marks about most of the runners here but FRANKIE BALLOU is ain great form, winning again at his belived Sedgefield on Friday. In the hope the assessor hasn't yet caught up with himand under his penalty, he is the choice. Top weight Sharney Sike has claims despite his advancing years, Orioninverness can't be completely dismissed despite failing to shine at this venue in the past. Mcginty's Dream and Notonebutwo are others to consider.
